I thought this course was an excellent overview of current thought and analysis with respect to Responsible Investing. I liked the progression, with an over view to start and then in-depth consideration of Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance (ESG) issues. Highly recommended for those starting in RI, and a great refresher for those like me with more experience.
